Zambia and Kenya today played out to a scoreless draw in the two teams second Group B match at the on-going Cecafa Senior Challenge Cup in Jinja, Uganda.

The draw leaves Zambia still at the top of Group B on 5 points from two games going into their penultimate pool game on Sunday against Burundi at the same venue.

Meanwhile, Burundi are second in Group B after beating Djibouti 4-0 earlier in the day at the same venue to go 2nd on 3 points from their opening game played today in the 5-team Group B.

Zambia, who beat Djibouti 3-0 on Wednesday, need to beat Burundi on Sunday in the race to take one of the two semifinal slots ahead of final Group B match against Sudan on January 8 at Nakivubo.

For Kenya, they need to win their remaining for games with Burundi and Djibouti coming up after two successive scoreless draws.

  1. Mysterious, I have learnt a lesson now. Dont add a number to your comment because there a lot of wizkids on this site. I can challenge anyone to convince me that this is no the most active site pa Zed !

  2. Well, thats the name o0f the game never underestimate anyone, especially those deemed weak…as for the mathematical chance…i don’t think that will be the case…we have a good side and good game going, lets just kick Burundi and mantain our lead…thats a disappointing draw though…

  3. #5 hey Pinkly, on the other headline you were boasting about ‘instincts’ of being top 5, What has happened now? I am sure a lot of bloggers are thin because they are always online e.g ulya njikwite

  4. Zambia should have 4 points and not 5 as reported by Lt above.One win gives 3 points, a draw gives 1 point.I stand to be corrected rest things have changed. GO ZAMBIA GO 🙂

  5. Thanx LT, i knew u had the results too bad Mother Zambia dont give up, be like Man utd. later **==**==**==**==**==**==**==**==**==**==**==**==**==**==**==

  6. From the way things are panning out in this tournament Kenya is becoming a FORCE TO RECKON WITH! well we beat Djibouti by 3 goals to nil and Kenya Drew with the Leading Champions Sudan, I think it will be useless for our cauch and zambian delegation to ignore Kenya…remember, just like us, Kenya is using this tournament to prepare for World cup and Africa cup qualifiers so is Sudan…

  7. thats right, it 4 points not 5 points. FIFA will punish zambia is you continue misleading the general public. be careful kaponyas!!!

  8. Firstly,LT, you need to work on your EDITING seriously.

    Secondly, how can Zambia have 5 pts from 2 matches(stand to corretced)

    Thirdly, it seems Zambia still has a scoring problem. 1-1 or 2-2 is better than 0-0.

    lets continue working on discovering the God given talents fairly and also seriously.

    Wishing Zambia Gods blessings in sport

  9. Though Sad game as guests in the tournament, we needed to win minors but Kenya is no longer a minor. Keep up Zambia

  10. I hope the boys didn’t get hooked on too many bottles of beer as they celebrated New Year. It could have a negative effect on their performance…I’m speaking from experience.

  11. iyee iyee chipolopolo…go go Zanbia. dont drink concentrate baiche. Win all the remaining games. Zmbia oyeeee. l-)l-)l-)

  12. sorry guys to write,drawing with kenya and some of yu like ngwenya want to predict that zed will qualify for S/A 2010,AWE NAYOPA INE BA ZED GOAL SCORING NI KAYA KWENA! A lot needs to be done with our football. FAZ go back to the days when talent was identified from schs,remember Kelvin mtale frm Naboye sec sch in kafue,then schs compts were well organised. we need that,otherwise zed football will remain mathematical.soccer funs will just die of heart attacks,we used to compete with west and north africans,now even kenya,burundi and rest are giving us headaches,kaya!

  13. we wait pa sunday, if they do not win Renard should be careful that is why ba investor kcm will not continue paying his salary, we need more goals, those small countries there are raelly small compared to Chipolopolo.

  14. Zambian players need to be serious with any game they play.It is not just the matter of flying out of the country and having funa as they go there to represent the whole nation.Iam behind you boys but don´t ifyo…

  15. The KK XI at times lacks consistency. Anyway, we shall win the last game and go through. Keep it boys and viva KK XI.

  16. I think with proper focus, the other teams shouldnt be a problem. however, Renard should stop his obsession with this guy, Roger Kola. His strike rate is very bad and he has never impressed eversince his introduction in the team.

    Good lucky
